Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is one of my time favorite movies. I wasn’t alone in liking it. The film won four academy awards and was nominated as Best Picture in 1970. It’s ranked as one of the top 150 movies on several motion picture sites. Part of the popularity of the film was the difference between Sundance and Butch. The Sundance Kid was a notorious gunslinger and likes to fight his way through differences. While Butch was more of the peacemaker.

How are you at sowing seeds of peace? Most of us will not be called on to ward off a gunfight, or for that matter any physical encounter. But, here’s what we have been called to do and according to the Bible it is vital and significant in God’s sight: we are to bring peace to troubled hearts.
